On January 1, several hundred demonstrators, as well as friends and supporters of the family of Oscar Grant and other victims of police repression, marched from downtown Oakland to the Fruitvale BART station where a rally was held. The annual march and rally is to show that Oscar Grant, who was murdered by BART police officer Johannes Mehserle in 2009, is gone but not forgotten, and to also denounce police violence everywhere, but especially in Oakland where the problem is particularly bad. The sponsors of the event were the Oscar Grant Committee, Occupy Oakland, and Bring the Ruckus. Video footage includes the following speakers at the rally: Wanda Johnson (mother of Oscar Grant), Kenneth Carruthers, Denika Chatman, Danny Garcia, Sharena Curely, Anita Wills, and Khali.

Anita Willis is the mother of Kerry Baxter Senior and the grandmother of Kerry Baxter Junior. Kenny Senior was unjustly given a 66 year prison sentence in a case investigated by a detective who is now in charge of invstigating the murder of Kenny Junior, who perished in a seperate event. The family has been treated terribly by the OPD, and the investigating officer, and they seek to have Federal and State Investigators oversee the Murder Investigation to determine if Kerry Junior's Civil Rights were violated.

Shareena Curely speaks about a meeting with Shawn Gillis, a whistle blower from the Oakland Fire Department who discovered that Oscar Grant's medical treatment was not done properly by the EMTs who arrived at the Frutivale BART station.
